  Hi there,

  i sometimes need to measure distances on photo.
  i do so using not only gimp but i need also calculator to do it.

  The problem is that the measure tool doesn't have scale parameter.
  It would be great if i can firstly measure scale and set distance
  for it (ex 20px = 38m) and then measure other things that i need,
  where the result will be shown not only in px but also in meters
  (or other units ex. mile, foot, inch etc).

  Easiest example is screenshot of google map, where you have scale
  on bottom, and you would like to know the distance from A to B on
  this scale.

  Much further feature would be measure of areas, using also
  feature of scale.
  Simple areas like square, rectangle, or any of quadrilaterals,
  triangle, oval, circle, ellipse etc...

  This would be perfect, but i don't know to whom i should send this
  proposition, so please forward it to right persons if they are not
  reading this list.

  Kind regards!

I am not much of a programmer, but cant this be done by writing a script?
The measurement tool gives you pixels, and then let the script recalculate it 
to what ever unit you want??

 If I use the paths tool and drag to move I get a horrible green mess of

 Probably easier to show some pictures of what I am getting;

 Hello

 I want to extend my thanks to the developers of Gimp, the list members

 the possibilities: all thanks to the wonderful people of the Gimp
 world. Yesterday, I created this web banner for a client:

I cant help but agree with Ajay.
A heartfull thanks to all the individuals who give their time to this project.
I LOVE Gimp! I use it fo a varety of tasks. Anything from just resizing or 
converting things my daughter wants in a better shape, to photo editing.
It so handy.!

And as far as braking things down in layers..
I was a herald in the Society for Creatine Anachronism (SCA) a while back.
I broke every streetsing into heraldic language...
Almost the same thing! :)
It actually helps me now, as i edit and combine images.
I can look at a picture and break it down to major and minor components, and 
thus into layers. VERY handy.

Keep up the wonderful work!!!

 I've run tens of passes. Everything is clean but the blue reservoir,
 which is stuck real bad. I'm cleaning it with spit, printing, spit,
 printing, but I have a long ways to go and I'd like to not waste the
 ink from the other reservoirs. That's why I'd like to print only blue.

Spit is probably one of the worst cleaning solvents you can use...
The nozzles are so small that particles in your spit will clog them.

This is how the printer technician at my work does it:
Place the cartridge head down in a shallow bowl with clean water.
Leave it in for a few hours, wipe it of gently with a clean cloth rag. 
Do NOT use tissuepaper!
Make sure its dry before you place it back into the printer again.
This might have to be repeated, but its safe for the nozzles and ink.

It depends on how the image was faked.
If it was a original jpeg and one did a half-bad job, a pixel by pixel survey 
might spot it.
But if the original was a raw image for instance, and the manipulation was 
done with some care, and the end result is a jpeg with higher compression 
then it is a lot harder to spot.
There might be some mathematical statistics calculation to see odd differences 
in the compression, but that i cant say for certain.

 Thank goodness you have given a lot of information.

 I'd say, just off-hand, that you need to set another default image

 have little chance of determining how. (IF I do know ???) and if I

If it is under Windows, just choose Open with... and choose a viewer

 Adding a watermark could easily be done in GIMP. If you have a lot of
 images which you need to watermark I would suggest you might be better off
 using the composite program found in the ImageMagick
 (http://www.imagemagick.org/) suite of tools. Since you mentioned Photoshop
 and Paintshop Pro I will assume you are running a Windows OS. The downloads
 links for ImageMagic indicate that a Binary version of the ImageMagick

There is at least one watermark script on the http://registry.gimp.org/ page.
I use the one called watermark (http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=2663)

[Gimp-user] GIMP, RAW images and best procedures.

2006-07-17 Thread Rikard Johnels
Hello list.

I have started to use RAW format in my photography lately.
I know of the dcraw and ufraw programs, and they work very nicely with GIMP.

I took a closer look at dcraw's command line syntax to see if i couldnt write 
some automated conversion scripts.
dcraw has the option -4 to write 16-bit linear PPM.
So i tried that and went on to open that image in GIMP.
It complained:

PNM Image Message
PNM: Invalid maximum value.
GIMP Message
Opening 'imgp0001.ppm' failed: Plug-In could not open image

This is due to GIMP not working with 16 bit images right?
What is the best way to get the most accurate copy from a RAW format file?

  http://www.blender.org/bf/sb.jpg
 
  The prints will measure 30 x 60 inch each.
 
  So here's a todo for GNOME and Uni-verse: deliver me a design for
  that print (you're full free in that of course!). The fourth banner
  will be shared for Aqsis and Inkscape. I will connect the Inkscape
  designer with the Aqsis one (who happens to be sponsor for this
  stuff).
 
  Deadline: ASAP! Well, I give you guys 10 days. July 21 we then can
  start printing.

 Can someone do a 30 x 60 banner design for GIMP  GNOME for me this
 week, by any chance? Please? It should have both the GNOME logo and
 Wilber, but aside from that you're free.

 Cheers,
 Dave.

Who would print it? And how?
Any specific materials or do you plan to cut-n-tape ordinary 
color-printouts?

A good banner printed on plastic cloth is not too easy to have done even if 
you have the master layout. It usually takes a week or two. (At least here in 
Sweden). But maybe you have a good screen print company close by who can get 
it done for you in a hurry.

 The motive I am writing however is another one: Mr. Noriega, can you
  think of a better way of handling painting with the input devices found
  in most computers? (i.e. keyboard and mouse - maybe mic).
 The GIMP is comunity based, and you can help us build a better software.
 Even one that gets ahead the commercial counterparts in some respects.
 
 There's one relatively simple change I can think of, that could reduce
 problems as the one experienced by Hector: instead of requiring the user
  to hold the mouse button pushed down during a drawing operation, it's
  possible to signal the start and the end of a drawing operation with
  separate mouse clicks. I.e. instead of mouse down - paint operation -
  mouse up you could do mouse click - paint operation - mouse click.

But that would induce repetetive ovements of the arms and shoulders as you 
lift and move your hands. That is the same type of stress a supermarket clerk 
has. And we all know the problems they get...

I think the tablet idea is the most functional alternative to mouse/keyboard.
Maybe combined with left hand on the keyboard (if you are right handed) using 
the short cut keys. As little meta-ctrl-alt combos as possible to relieve 
finger stress

It would be cool to colorcode a keyboard a la the ones available for the video 
editing software Final Cut Pro.

  I just have a simple question on how to add a watermark to an image?

 I'm sure there are tutorials someplace on this, but here is my quick
 overview.

 Several ways of doing this. If you just want a copyright on one image then
 in Gimp
 open the text tool (a big T). The tricky part is the (C) symbol. Presumably
 there are keystrokes to get a (C) to appear but it has never worked for me
 so I use gucharmap and select a (C) from there. You may want to knock down
 the opacity of the text layer (from the layer dialogue).

 If you have several images to copyright I use imagemagick's composite. Once
 I've created a file that just has my copyright statement in it (copyd.png)
 I do:
 composite -gravity SouthEast -geometry +100+100
 /home/bonzo/photos/copyd.png orig.jpg new.jpg

 I'm no lawyer, but I read that to be legal a copyright must have the
 symbol, (C) is not good enough, the date, and an identifing name.

Use the watermark script.
It does exactly what you want.
I cant for my life remember who wrote it. But who ever is was shall have all 
the credit.
Its a marvelous little piece :)

The copyright symbol © on MY keyboard is alt-gr + C 
There are other ways to get it into a text. (eg. copy from another text or use 
special character inserts in whatever program you are using.)


This is the script:

---Start Script ---

;   Write a watermark in a corner of the image

;  Next line wrapped!!!
(define (script-fu-watermark image drawable text font pixsize location \
\ opacity)

  (let*

;   Save the foreground color

;   Set the foreground color to white

 (gimp-palette-set-foreground '(255 255 255))

  (let*

;   Set the X and Y locations offset by 10 pixels from the chosen corner

 ((imagewid (car (gimp-image-width image)))
  (imagehgt (car (gimp-image-height image)))

  (ytext
 (cond ((= location 1) (- (- imagehgt pixsize) 10))
   ((= location 2) 0)))

  (textwid (car (gimp-text-get-extents-fontname text pixsize 0 font)))

  (xtext
 (cond ((= (fmod location 2) 0) 10)
   ((= (fmod location 2) 1) (- (- imagewid textwid) 10

;   Create a layer with the watermark text

  (tlayer (car (gimp-text-fontname image -1 xtext ytext text -1 TRUE
  pixsize 0 font

;   Bump map the watermark layer

  (plug-in-bump-map 1 image tlayer tlayer 135 45 3 0 0 0 0 1 0 0)

;   Set the opacity of the watermark layer

  (gimp-layer-set-opacity tlayer opacity)

;   Combine the original image layer and the watermark layer

  (gimp-image-flatten image)

I cant help but add a few of my personal thoughts on this topic..

I use GIMP because it ISNT PS. AND the fact that PS doesn't readily run on my 
favorite OS. Where as GIMP runs on at least 3 different ones...
This in it self add conciderable to my choice. I can have three different 
studios running Linux, Windows and OSX and still have a homogenous image 
manipulating software. (BIG plus in my book)

Second; If changing from PS to GIMP is a bigger hurdle than changing the other 
way around, its not GIMP's fault. Its a problem behind the keyboard.
I have never liked PS cluttered layout, and have found GIMP's interface alot 
easier to handle. So in MY case changing TO GIMP never was much of a 
question.

There are all kinds of talks about PS being more advanced, have lots more 
plugins etc.
So? If a commercial software thats been around for so many years as PS, DIDN'T 
have more bells and whistles than a uncommercial piece that only been 
around a few years, I'd be more then surpriced. 
GIMP started very small and has, in a short few years grown conciderable.

So back to the topic...
WHY would you want to make GIMP look like PS??
WHY would you change layout to something, in my mind, inferior?
If i want to have PS i'd run PS. 

I run GIMP because it more then fits my needs.
I run GIMP because i find it easier to use.
And i DO run GIMP because it's free for me to use.
I dont want to, and dont have the money to spend on new versions and releases.

Now mind you, i do NOT slight those who want to take babysteps.
Bus as Carol said. Its not very smart.

Getting from A to B is one step. Sure it might be a big one.
But why cut it up in small steps?
Its like exchanging your softwarebase in steps.
First lets take out the database. and Learn a way of making the old and new 
software work in unison.
Then lets exchange the reporttool. And get more problems as the new system 
doesn't talk to the clients.
And as last step (after lots of headaches and patching scripts) lets exchange 
the clients.
Now the only thing we have to do is educate the users a third time to make 
everyting work again.
And thus ending up at B as planned from the beginning.

Bottom line, why change a program into sometingelse just cause its looks and 
handles as the old one?
Wouldn't it be better to stay with the old in that case?
And the parts of forking. Its sure is easier to steal an idea and fiddle with 
it so it looks as it mine, than it is coming to an agreement of a certain way 
of operation. But is it fair play? Is it well done?

I think not.

These are my own personal thoughts on the matter.
So don't go flaming the community for what i write here.

Any complaints will be duly read, and answered to if i find them relevant.



With a sincere thanks to the developers, maintainers and people working and 
improving GIMP...

What system do you use? It sounds to me it's to slow for the load..
It looks like the mousedriver gets stressed, and thus only gives you a few 
points. (Polling to slow)
Either that or you and your mouse is way to fast.. :)

Does the same problem occur if you draw the circle slower?
Does the same problem occur in another drawing program?
Do you experience jerky movement elsewhere?

Look at any of the numerous tutorials on changing the background scattered 
over the net.
I have tried atleast 3 different different, with differing effect depending on 
what i needed done and the original picture. (Anything from removing 
ppl/items in the bg, to changing DOF)

 AFAIK the install process just creates the .gimp-2.2 directory in
 the home directory of the user and stores some preferences files in
 there. You could try to make a template .gimp-2.2 directory - one
 which does not have any user dependencies and distribute this into
 the user directories of all users you want to use GIMP without
 installing it.

   Any ideas??

 Maybe you have an outdated dcraw package, or you are missing a plugin
 or similar.  In such circumstances, the solution would to go through
 the painstaking process of downloading gimp development packages for
 your distribution, and building dcraw from source.

 Logically, my head tells me that

 yum install gimp-devel

 should work, although I've never used Fedora, as above.

 Then, presuming you have necessary packages like tar, gzip, make and
 gcc on your system (I don't remember if they're part of Fedora's
 default install) you can simply go:

 tar -xvzf dcraw-x-y-z.tar.gz
 cd dcraw-x-y-z
 ./configure
 make

 and then

 # make install

 [meaning run make install as root, either via su, sudo, or under
 root from a terminal login]

 similar to many other programs when building from source.  But there's
 no research behind this -- and hopefully dcraw comes with better
 and/or more detailed instructions in the package (if any).

 Like above, this is all guesses, and more likely than not unhelpful.
 A user of Fedora probably has a better answer.

   Thanks a lot... I really appreciated the previous help and please keep
  helping me

There has been several threads on different lists regarding this problem.
It is a new feature in the gtk+ libs.
And the software compiled against/using the old versions are not 100% 
compatible with the new ones.
One of the things being the black menues.

Suggestion; Revert to an older gtk+ lib.

[Gimp-user] gimp 2.2.8 broken after system upgrade.

I upgraded my SuSE 9.2 system a few hours ago using apt.
And among the things upgraded was cairo and a few others.
Now all the menu's in Gimp are black.
Black text on black background isn't to easy to read. :(

What happened? What do i have to reinstall or downgrade?

gimp-2.2.8-5
cairo-0.9.2-4

Also; what do i need to do to get rid of the ImportErrors in the beginning?

This is what gets as i run gimp from prompt:

  Regards,
 

I tried using a version of the technique used here:
http://www.photo.net/learn/dark_noise/
But it gave me odd results with partially see through ppl, and ghosts.
So maybe i didnt get it right.

Setup: 
* Sergels Torg Square, Stockholm, Sweden. Tripod. camera set on manual 
exposure to ensure same colorbalance, shutter, aperture etc.
* Take two shots of the same object in rapid succession. (Small timelapse)
* Swivel camera to the next segment of the panorama, with the same setting.  * 
* Shoot two pictures.
* Repeat until covered the whole pano field.

So far so good.
Next. Back tho the digital photolab and fire up gimp.
Project, to remove everything from the pictures except the stationary objects, 
leaving an empty square. (With a few sitting/standing people.)
Stitch a panorama from the resulting edited pictures.

It is apparently harder then i thought to remove the noise of moving 
objects.

 So you updated GTK+ to an unstable development version that has been

 you are asking the GIMP developers why you are experiencing problems?

 Please do either update cairo and gtk+ or downgrade to a late

I spotted that problem a few hours later as i went at it a bit more rested.
I missed that GTK2 was at 2.7.5.. Downgraded as it is right now. (upgrade will

  lights, and I would like to know the correct method to improve
  it. Right now Im using Brigth and contrast to increase bright.

 Try using the Levels tool instead. Just play with it for a while and
 perhaps use the Help button. You might find the color pickers useful.

I sometimes use a copy of the image added to the original.
Test the following (in Gimp 2.2.8 anyhow)

Start Gimp.
Open the picture which you want to lighten.
Make a copy (right klick on the image - Layer - Duplicate layer)
In the layer window: Layers Mode set to Screen instead of Normal.
That lightens the image some. Just redo the steps above for even brighter 
images.
Its a fast way to brighten things up without having to play with values.

[Gimp-user] Wacom SD-42 tablet and GIMP

2005-07-01 Thread Rikard Johnels
Anyone got such a beast running under Gimp?
(And worse yet, anyone has a manual or a printout of the dip-switch settings 
on the back?)
I got one from a friend, almost never used. But sans manual. :(
I thought i fiddle around with it a bit and see if its anything worth saving 
or not.
But i have no idea if the settings on theback are within reason as the guy 
used it on a old MAC.

Wacom's homepage doesnt have hold older manuals, nor does a google on the 
subject give anything usefull...

Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Re: [Gimp-user] DPI or resolution ?

 well, it would appear to me the more import ## is resolution,
 i.e. a image at 1600 x 1200 @ 144 dpi  ( 8 x 10 ) approx

 would produce a nice 300 dpi print.

 So, a chart, of resolution sizes, would be nice,
 for printing out photo¹s ..ie. 8x10 11x14 16x20...etc

That depends on the viewing distance.
A 10x15 cm print needs somewhere 300 dpi to be able to view it closely.
A huge 10x15 metre billboard viewed from 10 m distance need maybe 30 dpi.

[Gimp-user] Anyone good at converting/porting scripts from perl to python?

2005-06-01 Thread Rikard Johnels
I have been trying to get Gimp Perl to run without success for a while now.
I have decided to try another way..
The script i want to run is as follows;

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Gimp qw( :auto );
use Gimp::Fu;

registercenter_guide,
Creates h-  v-guides at the center of the image.,
Physical center = width/2 and height/2; Optical center = the 
Golden Mean.,

center,
 0,
[Physical = 0, Optical = 1]
]
],
sub {
my ($img, $layer, $center) = @_;

$w = $img-width();
$h = $img-height();
$hc = int($h/2 + 0.5);
$vc = int($w/2 + 0.5);

if ($center == 1) {
$hc = int(($h / 2.6179) + 0.5);
};
$bit_bucket = $img-add_hguide($hc);
$bit_bucket = $img-add_vguide($vc);
gimp_drawable_update($layer, 0, 0, $w, $h);
};
exit main;



How do i convert it to python?
Python i DO have working...

 the gimp-user list is running very slowly lately.  i would be curious as
 to how many are on the maillist

 i have not configured my mailer very much, therefore, i try to answer
 emails that were sent to the list back to the list and emails that i
 know came from an individual to the individual.  the emphasis should be
 on the try.  i can see from the headers if the email was also sent to
 the list or not, whether i actually look at those is another emotionally
 charged question.

 right now, you are making a mistake i often make -- although, i think
 you make it on purpose.  we had quite an exchange via email and most of
 that i think i sent directly to you and not to the list.  i relaxed and
 typed as if i were typing to a thinking adult since there were words in
 the emails that did not fit on a public mail list -- installing things
 can be frustrating.

 can i ask that you paste some (perhaps not all) of the spew you got from
 when you tried to install the gimp-perl tarball?  not only is the line
 about the cat interesting, but also the install pdl and please do not
 install the pdl error messages.  send this to the whole list and await
 for the list to mail it out.

 i was apologizing to you (directly) for suse, even though i had nothing
 to do with this distribution (to the best of my knowledge).

 can i ask you personally as well as publically ... did you pay for your
 suse installation and what did you expect when you installed it?

 carol
Thats just the point!
I send a cc to the list at all times and have done so along our conversation.
And they just dont show up

No need to apologize!
Usercommunity software like Gimp IS (inherently) not complete.
But then again not all commercial ones are either :)

Gimp as it is is very nice. And maturing all the time.
What bugs me is the lack of ease in compiling it.
There aren't any clear lists of dependencies and prerequisites listed 
anywhere.
All you get is an error at either config or compile time.
And not all of them are easy to resolve.

It would be so much easier if there was a small file or something, listing 
what libs and utils need to be installed to compile the software.
I think that would cut a lot of the usual questions on the lists.
The same i cant compile type questions keep creeping up.
And most of them seem to be old or missing libs.
A list of used ones would ease things up for us dont have a clue kind of 
ppl :)

Just my 2 cents...

And that too failed.

So how do i get it to find, download and finally successfully compile it???

[Gimp-user] Fast way to view all patterns?

Hello all!
Is there a fast way to view all patterns a bit bigger then the iconic view in 
the selection tools?
I would like to have a palette to view ca. 200x200 pixels big.
It would make it easier for me to choose the right one faster.

Thanks. I'm glad you like them.

Could you please send this letter to the list for me? I would be very
grateful.

I've given up posting to gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu now. It would seem
that I have to unsubscribe, resubscribe and wait an hour just to be able to
post a single letter.

===
LAYER STYLE PYTHON PLUGIN.

I'm surprised nobody has hacked on that before. After all, it's all
there: Parasites that gets saved with the image/layer, a python module
that can update the editor-view live, a complete scripting language with
gtk bindings.

I spend a handful of hours trying to make a proof-of-concept. See what
you think..

http://www.artcamilla.dk/vaultage/cornucopia/gimp-plugins/layer-style.py


1) Make a test image with a background and a transparent layer with say
a filled small rectangle.

2) Python-fu / Alchemy / Layer Style

3) Drag the slider

4) Close the dialog

5) Save the image and close it

6) Reopen the image

7) Select either the original gizmo layer or the auto-generated style
layer

8) Invoke Python-fu / Alchemy / Layer Style again and play with the
slider.


There's a HUGE TODO list on that script, but the necessary basics are
proven available although IT IS SLOW! But there are room for
optimization, especially with a little help from the real pros who knows
what is fast and what is slow.

WARNING: Cheap tricks such as this will become obsolete once GEGL is
ready, I can image.. :)

Enjoy

Centipede

P.S.: All my letters to this list seem to bounce.

 Hmm. Due to selective demand, I've begun to assemble a few articles,

 Some of these things are old - the manual is clearly better - and some

 Well, anyway..

VERY nice tutorials!
Easy to read and easy to follow.
Not to mention the great collection of brushes and patterns made for us...

Thank you Rene!

 in my /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/ all the plugins have 755 permissions.

 What permissions do you have for script?

I changed them to 755 and now they work...
Probably the fault :)

  Carol,
 You are right that there are ways of working around
 solutions, but this is not the point. In reality, it
 seldom happens, if ever, that you come up with an
 idea, then sit down in front of your computer and
 realize it in one shot.  Rather, artwork, even the
 simplest ones like web page buttons are the result of
 experimentation. And this is where the Adjustment
 layer and the layer effects come in. Using them you
 can experiment with various settings without changing
 the set up of your layer structure. In addition, you
 can edit your artwork, even months or years after
 finishing it, simply by altering the Adjustment layer
 or changing the layer effects parameters. For
 instance, if I decide at some point that don't want
 drop shadows anymore, I simply click on the layer
 effect representing the shadow and I turn it off, or
 add other effect if I want to. By the way Macromedia
 Fireworks has similar tools but their implementation
 is totally different; they call them Live Effects.
 These are extremely useful tools that's why graphic
 artists like them; they allow an efficient and
 economical way of creating artwork. I think the Gimp
 would benefit a great deal from similar features.

 jozsefmak

Thats one of the problems here:
Gimp which is fairly young is compared to an OLDtimer as Photoshop who's been 
around for ages!
Of course graphic artists use photoshop. Its was the only thing available a 
few years back with any kind of usefullness.
Its the same situation as with GNU/Linux itself. It took a few years of 
collaborate work to get it up to (and even beyond) par with MS Windows.
Gimp is developing rather rapidly and as far as i can see, steadily in the 
same direction. Giv it a little more time and you'll have a piece of software 
that will exceed even the oldie Photoshop.

In lieu of the fact that Gimp and most of the open source software is on free 
time basis, i'd say Gimp is a KILLER application.
And i am sure that it will continue to develop.

Just my two cents worth...

 They are gorgeous! I am very impressed by the quality. I tested 4 (3
 textures and 1 pastel) and they would really be nice addition to gimp.
 Thanks and congratulations.
